Plot

In the shadowy corners of New York, Seth Davis, a college dropout turned underground casino operator, battles his desperate craving for wealth and acceptance. His life, marked by his father's stern disapproval of his illicit lifestyle, teeters on the precipice of drastic transformation when he's enticed into the world of stockbroking by Greg, a recent acquaintance. Seduced by the promise of abundant riches and respectability, Seth steps into the high-stakes arena of JT Marlin, a small-time brokerage firm where money reigns supreme. The firm's aggressive ethos, personified by the cutthroat Jim, paints a picture of a world where the pursuit of wealth overshadows all else. Seth's tumultuous relationship with his father and his budding romantic interest in Abbie, a captivating colleague, fuels his ambition, propelling him to excel in this ruthless environment. As he develops a taste for the thrill of the hard sell and the allure of hefty commissions, Seth seems poised for meteoric success. However, his fast-tracked journey to the top begins to unravel as unexpected encounters sow seeds of doubt about the firm's legitimacy. Suddenly, Seth finds himself entangled in a moral dilemma that threatens to shatter his relationship with his father and undermine what's left of his integrity. Echoing the dark, unscrupulous spirit of films like Wall Street and Glengarry Glen Ross, Boiler Room unravels a grim tale of ambition, deception, and the sinister underbelly of a seemingly glamorous industry. Directed by Ben Younger, this compelling debut feature sheds light on the chillingly corrupt side of a business already notorious for its lack of morality, crafting a riveting narrative that holds its audience captive from beginning to end.
